Written by Csaba Vékes, the story depicts an unexpected encounter between a writer who is popular but bereft of inspiration, and his little son, whom he has never seen before. This twisted, cheerful and emotional story of forced coexistence will cross the boundaries of reality thanks to the boy’s imagination…

Produced by Istvan Major for Filmteam, Peter Geszti and Edit Ditz for Grund, and Peter Roskó for Blue Duck Arts, Daddy and Other Wolves has secured support from the NFI (Hungarian National Film Institute). The shoot is taking place in Budapest and its surroundings, with Péter Szatmári serving as DoP. The Hungarian theatrical release is scheduled for the second quarter of 2021.
